Jerry Brito: Top ten myths about introverts →
jerrybrito:
Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk. This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days.
Myth #2 – Introverts are shy. Shyness has nothing to…

Lately, I’ve found myself wishing that I really had someone I could talk about life with. There doesn’t really seem to be a whole lot of that these days, especially as many of the people I trust the most are far away.
I miss that… just talking.

It was actually pretty accurate!
In general, I can’t wait to leave again in March. I miss my friends and I’m feeling rather disconnected here. It’s helpful that my gig schedule is really busy because socially things have been rather dull and I...

CALIFORNIA TUFFY: MIXTAPE CHALLENGE: Intro to You! →
Totally think I might do this for fun… but in CD format. I don’t even own a tape deck anymore.
HOW TO PUT TOGETHER YOUR TAPE
Your mixtape should be ten tracks long and consist of five tracks on each side.
Side ‘A’ should represent the positive, happy bits.
Side ‘B’ should represent the not so happy bits, but end on a good note.
Songs can be by any artist.
Pick your...

Sometimes I wish there were people I felt closer to and more connected with here.
There’s so much shit I need to talk about. Some of it good, but some of it things I’m not happy about. Things I wish I could say I wasn’t happy about, but know that it isn’t my place to and I have to just accept them and move on with my own life.
One of the people who has always been most...

Another Half-Awake Musing from Austria
It amazes me sometimes, that back at home I have to fight tooth and nail for just one third of the professional recognition I feel I deserve. To fight, claw, and otherwise push myself nearly to my wits end to be noticed enough to be offered something of high quality (granted, while Philadelphia disappoints all but rarely, NYC and DC have been coming through lately with some high-quality,...
Things I love about Austria #3,478,962: Pretty girls are always kissing me :)
Sometimes I have days when I feel absolutely unlovable.
But I when I’m here, somehow I always feel like Vienna loves me back <3

In 5 days, it will be exactly 1 month until I depart for Austria.
As much as everything feels so much better with the return of spring, getting out of here still can’t come soon enough. I miss being around Europeans so much and I think I’ve pinpointed one of the reasons why. Maybe this is only my perception, but Americans seem obsessed with drastic change in a way that Europeans...
French guillotine exhibition opens 33 years after... →
adamisacson:
I had no idea France was still guillotining people as recently as 1977 - I thought that was like a 1789 kind of thing. Nobody tell Texas.
Yep… and Spain was using the garrote (way more grisly than the guillotine) up until 1974.
Call me a total sicko, but I can’t tell you how badly I want to go to Paris and see the last intact guillotine from mainland France. I saw a...
Black Beer, Black Dog
I am on the deck with my dog and a growler of porter from Dock Street. Between this and the Bea Arthur / Mountain / Pizza photos, I declare a good day.

mattchew03:
Can you tell I was raging over this?
Wow, way to alienate the one of the only artists out there who not only continues to embrace the music video as a work of art, but one of the only artists who truly cares about music videos, period. Then again, I don’t think MTV’s been particularly culturally relevant since the early-mid 90’s. ESPECIALLY when it comes to...
